Celebrating ten years in our building, this studio program focuses on new works acquired in tandem with our ten year anniversary celebration. The class explores works by Mark Bradford, Sol LeWitt, Vernon Fisher and many more! Distinguished local artists visit and discuss each work with the class and lead participants in specially designed studio projects using mixed media. The class spans ten weeks with three different artists leading separate projects over the course of the mini semester. There is a two-week break in March for spring break. All materials are provided.

Schola has long been dedicated to the performance of music by American composers and arrangers. Made in America features works by William Billings, Aaron Copland, Cecil Fissinger, Moses Hogan, Robert Shaw/Alice Parker, and Randall Thompson. In keeping with Schola's commitment to educational outreach, this concert will be led by Schola associate conductor Cari Earnhart, a graduate student in choral music studies at the University of North Texas.
